1 ME-430 INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN Crankshaft Optimization Using Behavior Modeling Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 2.0 Dr. Herli Surjanhata The engine designer has a requirement to keep the crank in balance and an objective of reducing the crank mass to enable quicker engine startup. Four basic studies will be performed on the crankshaft model: • Analysis Features • Sensitivity Study • Feasibility Study • Optimization Study Sensitivity Analysis Sensitivity analysis allows you to analyze how various measured quantities (parameters) vary when a model dimension or an independent model parameter is varied within a specified range. The result is a graph for each selected parameter showing the value of the parameter as a function of the dimension. This provides for understanding exactly how geometric changes to your model will affect your engineering goals or specifications. Feasibility and Optimization Studies Feasibility and optimization studies allow you to have the system compute dimension values that cause the model to satisfy certain user-specified constraints. In a feasibility study, you define the following: • A set of model dimensions to vary. • A range within which each dimension can vary. • A set of constraints that you want the design to satisfy. The analysis constraints are defined as equalities or inequalities that use parameters (which are the result of an analysis feature) and constant values. A sample constraint may appear as follows: length < 6.3 or distance = 11. To perform a feasibility study, the system does the following: 2 • The system attempts to find a set of dimension values within the specified ranges that satisfies all of the constraints. • If a solution is found, the model display changes to show these dimensions modified to the new values. You can either accept these new dimensions or undo the changes. The model can be reverted to its state before the feasibility study. There can be many solutions in a feasibility study that satisfy all constraint. The system converges to one of the solutions. With an optimization study, you can specify the goal function in addition to the parameters for a feasibility study. In an optimization study, you define the following: • A set of dimensions to vary • A range within which each dimension can vary • A set of constraints that you want the design to satisfy • A goal function to be optimized (maximized or minimized)–a goal function is created as the result of an analysis feature To perform an optimization study, the system does the following: • The system looks for feasible solutions. • Out of feasible solutions, the system selects the solution that optimizes the goal function The crankshaft has the following dimensions: 3 Step 1: Create a 1.25 in diameter cylinder using FRONT datum plane as sketching plane. The extrusion depth is 0.5 in. Note that the center of the cylinder is 1.75 in. above TOP datum plane. Step 2: Create an extrusion for the balancing body of the crankshaft. The dimensions of the section to be extruded are shown below. The extrusion depth is 0.5 in. 4 Step 3: Create another cylindrical extrusion with 1.5 in diameter and 2.0 in. length. Step 4: Mirror the geometry. MATERIAL DENSITY Under Edit pull down menu, select Setup -> Mass Props Enter density of steel as material of crankshaft. OK Done. 5 ANALYSIS FEATURES Click the Insert an analysis feature icon . The ANALYSIS dialog box appears. Change the Name to be CG, and hit Enter. Choose Model Analysis. Hit Next button to continue. 6 Click the Compute button. Then choose Close. 7 Parameters can be created for all the results of the analysis. The can be used later in relations, in notes in drawing, or to drive optimizations. In this case, create a parameter for volume (by default). Then click the Next button. 8 Features can be created at the center of gravity (COG). In this case create a point at the center of gravity. Select PNT_COG_ (e.g. PNT_COG_282) Choose YES under Create. Click the Check button to finish. The analysis feature CG is now in the model tree. 9 A view of the model from the FRONT shows that Point located at CG is not located at the axis of revolution. These must be brought together to meet the design goal. Analyze the distance between the axis and point of CG. AXIS OF REVOLUTION Datum point at CG 10 Click the Insert an analysis feature icon . The ANALYSIS dialog box appears. Change the Name to be OFFSET, and hit Enter. Make sure the Type of analysis is Measure. Hit Next button to continue.
